- Matt Staver says that his capitol source predicts
a House vote on the "Employment Non-Discrimination Act" HR. 2015
on Thursday, November 1. Staver's source says ENDA will replace another
bill at the last minute, giving little time for Republicans to prepare
debate.
-
- Call your House member Wednesday morning
as soon as possible and insist that he or she not only vote against this
workplace "hate crimes" bill, but that they and other Republicans
speak against it on the floor of the House.
-
- Yes, as with the hate bill, President
Bush has promised to veto ENDA. But, with conference on the hate/arms
bill still postponed, we are seeing how a veto may be thwarted, even though
promised by the President. Bush may have to renege on his promised veto
to allow passage of the arms bill, with hate bill attached, supplying the
emergency needs of our troops.
-
- Also, as with the hate bill, promise
of a veto causes calls of protest to dry up. This gives ENDA supporters
just what hate bill supporters wanted: a chance to pass ENDA uncontested
in both the House and Senate. Result: Even if ENDA is vetoed by the President,
it still attains prestige as legislation approved by both Houses of Congress.
This empowers it to be easily passed in the new Congress in only 14 months.
-
- Let's be safe and defeat ENDA by referendum
of the people, not by letting George W. do it! Call your House member toll
